GUILE already supports this out of the box. Have you seen

Yes, of course GUILE supports this. But the problem is that

Yes, of course GUILE supports this. But the problem is that this does not go
through Lilypond’s path handling. So I really do not think this would be a

Hello,
Would it be considered okay if we included a scheme function to read a binary
file to a byte array?
This would be useful for correct handling of eps-files (which currently does
not support the actual eps specification).
Basically an eps-file appears to be mixed content, with some binary
